NEW YORK CITY — The American investment team of Bahrain-based Investcorp has acquired 56 industrial properties totaling approximately 4.5 million square feet across seven major American markets. The purchase price was roughly $300 million.

The portfolio includes nine warehouses in Minneapolis; 16 warehouse/flex buildings in Dallas; 14 warehouse/manufacturing buildings in Chicago; nine warehouse and flex buildings in Philadelphia and Delaware; five warehouse/manufacturing buildings in Phoenix; two industrial properties in Houston; and one industrial asset in San Antonio.

All of the infill properties offer last-mile proximity to major population centers. The seller was not disclosed.

“This acquisition gives us the opportunity to expand our presence in this important and growing industrial/warehouse sector in the U.S.,” says Mohammed Alardhi, executive chairman of Investcorp. “This investment further reflects our commitment to growing Investcorp’s footprint in the U.S., which is a key driver of the firm’s overall growth strategy.”

At the time of sale, the properties were collectively 90 percent occupied by tenants in the e-commerce, manufacturing, design, wholesaling and food services industries. The sale marks Investcorp’s ninth industrial portfolio acquisition in the last 36 months.

Since 1996, Investcorp has purchased more than 550 properties with a total value in excess of $14 billion. The company’s industrial footprint in the U.S. now totals approximately 14 million square feet.
